Paris Hilton recently melted hearts on TikTok by sharing a video of her one-year-old son, Phoenix, exploring a luxury boat. In the clip, Phoenix, dressed in a cute red outfit, confidently walks around the boat while his doting mom follows closely behind. Hilton captioned the video: “Watching Phoenix explore the world has been so special to me! I am so grateful to be a #SlivingMom.”

However, while many fans adored the video, some expressed concern over the toddler’s safety on the moving boat. Commenters were quick to offer advice, urging Hilton to ensure Phoenix wears a life jacket. “Momma, please have him wear a life jacket always on a boat!! Stuff happens. That’s why they’re called accidents. With love,” one user advised. Another commented, “Not me having a small heart attack bc I didn’t realize there was a net and it wasn’t just water. Adorable little guy! Glad he’s safe.”

The video is part of Paris’ “Sliving” series, a term she coined by combining “slaying” and “living.” Despite the cute content, the video sparked some anxiety among her followers. One concerned user shared, “My anxiety not seeing him in a life jacket! Can never be too safe on the water!” while another mom added, “Please from one mom to another.. life jacket!”

Not all comments were critical, though. Some fans defended the socialite, reminding others that Hilton was closely supervising her son. “Can you imagine sharing your precious baby with people and all they do is tell you what you’re doing wrong! You are such a good mama!! She’s RIGHT THERE W/HIM!!!” one supporter noted.

Addressing the concerns, Hilton added an update to the video, reassuring her followers that Phoenix’s safety is her top priority. She wrote, “Hey Mamma’s, thank you for the advice & always caring about my #CutesieCrew. It’s a big boat & my husband and I are following him around everywhere & watching like hawks. My babies are my world!”

Hilton’s update put her fans at ease, showing that while she appreciates the advice, she is fully attentive and protective of her little one.
